Artificial Intelligence for Effective Realization of Underwater Domain Awareness Framework
Underwater Domain Awareness and Computational Advancement
"Acoustic Capacity Building has a wide array of military and commercial applications concerning with Maritime Security, Blue Economy, Marine Environment, Disaster Management, Underwater Archaeology and many more"
The Underwater Domain Awareness (UDA) framework, proposed by the Maritime Research Center (MRC), Pune, essentially focuses on effective realization of the Digital Ocean initiative for enhanced maritime governance. This will facilitate enhanced transparency with improved sonar deployment in terms of range, robustness to medium fluctuations, data integrity etc. This is commonly referred to as Acoustic Capacity Building effort and has a wide array of military and commercial applications concerning with Maritime Security, Blue Economy, Marine Environment, Disaster Management, Underwater Archaeology and many more. Although the framework has been coined in recent years, underwater research works contributing towards enhancing performance of marine systems has been a continuous effort since the Cold War period – which required intensive study of propagation of sound in sea for Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) operations. A fine example of this would be the ‘Ross Model’, developed by Donald Ross (acoustician), who used the noise measured by SOSUS in World War II (WWII) and during the Cold War to develop a mathematical model that predicts the noise emitted by ships using its length and speed.
